In honor of the announcment of Astro Bot a sequel to this game I thought it'd be a good idea to revisit it, and I gotta say it still great. I guess you can technically say this is a $500 game, but jokes aside I think Astros Playroom offers a lot of promise as a 3D platformer, it's so polished and it being a love letter to all sony fans it's really amazing how this is just a tech demo of the ps5's core features. Astro is a cute mascot which I think is fitting for a 3D platformer game and overall this game oozes with style and charm. I think where it kind of falters a bit is when the game uses its gimmicks for the controller. Some are definitely fun but others I could do without, still cool but its mainly why i'm giving this game a 4 instead of a 5. It's not perfect but if you're one of the few who has a ps5, I'd recommend giving this a shot. I mean its free!
